The site north of the station has been wiped away by new builds near the former Hartshill tunnel and Hartshill and Basford Halt. The cutting the station was located near has also been filled in and is now part of Station Walks which is a pedestrian and cyclist footpath but the tunnel and overbridges are still in place although a majority of the station site has been landscaped.
